What Poke does with your messages
Read from its published policy on 2026-09-06, and quoted rather than paraphrased. It trains on your conversations unless you turn that off. Your messages are carried by Linq.
What the document says
| Trains on your conversations | Yes, with opt-out |
|---|---|
| Data of people who never signed up | Addressed |
| If you cancel | Not addressed |
| Model providers named | None named |
| Who carries the messages | Linq (on Linq's customer logo wall for the iMessage API) |
| Where to report a hole | No route published |
| Jurisdiction | Not stated |
In its own words
“Improve and customize our products and services...including to train our artificial intelligence models. Data from users who select Maximum Privacy will not be used for model training”
“We may receive personal data from our other customers. For example, a customer's email inbox may contain your contact information.”
What it does not answer
The policy is silent on if you cancel, model providers named, where to report a hole and jurisdiction. Silence is not a denial, and it is not a promise either: a document that does not address the people in your group thread has not agreed to anything about them.
